Release the Grip of Traditional Medicine

I want to start this by making it clear that I am not trying to demonize traditional medicine. Clearly, there is a place for medications, surgeries, and general medical medicine practice.

The principle idea for this blog is to help you understand that there are other options in regards to taking care of your health.

Millions upon millions of dollars are spent every single day by big Pharma to make sure that you are constantly bombarded with advertisements stating that they have the next best medication for whatever seems to ail you. It is amazing how happy every one of those actors are on the big screen, simply because they started taking this miracle drug to block or hide all of their symptoms.

As far as business marketing goes, I would say big Pharma are geniuses. They control the health care market, and they have created a health care system that seems to only have ONE method of treatment, pharmaceuticals. We have no connection to the adverse affects of medications and the traditional medical system.

As I scan through the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists, some of the numbers are pretty alarming.

Did you know:
  • The average person ages 65 to 69 take almost 14 prescriptions
  • Those over 80 take nearly 18 prescriptions
  • 15-25% of medications used by seniors have been considered unnecessary or even inappropriate
  • Medical related problems or accidents cost the US $177.4 Billion, yes Billion, a year
  • Adverse drug reactions is among the top 5 greatest threats to the health of seniors
  • Each year, 32,000 seniors suffer hip fractures from medication-related problems
  • "Any symptom in an elderly patient should be considered a drug side effect until proven otherwise." -- J. Gurwitz et al. Brown University

There are many more interesting stats to be noted, but you can go to the site above and check it out for yourself.

As I mentioned earlier, the traditional medical system is necessary, but I encourage you to try and understand that it is not necessarily the best choice for your initial method of care. Chronic conditions are addressed with medications as the initial plan of care, and it should not be this way. Low back pain is quickly addressed with muscle relaxers and opiate pain medications, this should not be the case.

Diet and lifestyle based conditions like high blood pressure, pre-diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and obesity are addressed with synthetic medications to cover up the symptoms, instead of the doctor taking the time to address the root cause of these condition to prevent them.

Try Alternative Medicine First

This blog is to encourage each of you to further explore into the alternative medicine avenue.

The true beauty of alternative/holistic care, is that is will actually follow the Hippocratic Oath, "If at least, I will do no harm".

Holistic medicine such as
  • Massage Therapy
  • Chiropractic Therapy
  • Nutritional Supplementation
  • Herbal Supplementation
  • Reiki
  • Yoga

Will not only work to restore your health, it will do it without causing any harm to your body.

Dr. Mercola, a renowned holistic healthcare practitioner  wrote an article called
Chiropractors and Exercise Are Better than Drugs Says New Study

I encourage you to read this to help understand the difference between allowing the traditional medical system be your initial treatment option, or holistic healthcare.

The truth is, whether you are a senior or not, you know someone that is. You will be some day, and your health today affects you then. If you can start to take control of your health without dependence on a medication regimen, your health will benefit in the long haul. Hopefully you can minimize the prescription levels, and hopefully, if we can start to see the trend in alternative medicine, we can reduce the 25% of unnecessary medications prescribed to the senior citizens.

Regardless of the symptom that you start to have. If you have been diagnoses with a chronic condition, find a holistic provider and just get a second opinion with their treatment options. If they can keep you off of a single medication, your health will benefit.

3 Years and Some Change

Upon graduating for Palmer College of Chiropractic, Florida in December 2011, I set out to create a health center that bases its principles around changing what you think and know about the medical system. With a strong grasp on Evidence-Based Chiropractic Care and an evolving knowledge on nutritional therapy, tying the two holistic medicine approaches together would be the premise of New-Start Health Center.

Opening a business that is designed to go against the grain is never easy. Fresh out of college, I definitely felt on my own. There are many chiropractic management companies that are designed to help young businesses get off the ground, but I wanted to pioneer something unique. The primary disconnect for myself and chiropractic management companies is the overall feeling of chiropractic in our society. We have all heard the horror stories of going to a chiropractor, “once you go you have to go forever” or “they spend 2 minutes with you and just crack your back”. Trying to change the mind of the majority on how New-Start is a different style of chiropractic. Evidence-Based Chiropractic does not X-ray every patient. We treat pain syndromes and we release them from care. I spend about 12-15 minutes with every patient, minimum. This is a dramatic change to the stereotypical chiropractic visit.

As I stated, an evolving knowledge on nutritional therapy, I have spent countless hours in a biochemistry book, in seminars, and scouring the internet for research studies to figure out exactly what is going wrong. The common medical practices for diabetes and obesity have fallen short. We are getting sicker, fatter, and unhealthier at a faster rate than ever previously recorded. Unfortunately, healthcare costs are also at an all-time high and climbing quickly. In the anecdotal world, the treatment of conditions starts with covering up the symptoms, and with low back pain, or migraines, this is not detrimental. When you start to use this approach toward an inflammatory condition like Diabetes or Obesity, more problems arise.

After years of research it seems, 5 or 6 book starters, I am proud to be writing a book called, How Health Comes Apart. The idea behind this book is the primary focus of the nutritional therapy side of New-Start Health Center. I am writing my research to change America’s way of thinking about our obesity epidemic.


In three years, New-Start Health Center has been all about change. Change how chiropractic is viewed and utilized. Change how we diagnose and treat obesity and diabetes, and change how medical systems define success. The first three years in the Columbus area have been encouraging, insightful, and rewarding.  I am proud to be a part of the maturity of New-Start Health Center, and with many more years to come, to continue to change for the better.

What is the best diet to lose weight?



As you can see, this is a similar question as last weeks about losing weight. Let’s face it, I am in the health care field, the weight loss field, and the nutritional field, this is a common topic of my consultations.

Weight loss Columbus Indiana, weight loss Columbus, lose weight in Columbus, how to lose weight, nutritional advice in Columbus, Columbus Indiana nutrition, Columbus Indiana weight clinic, weight loss clinic in Columbus, wellness coach in Columbus, wellness, health clinic in Columbus, new-start, newstart, newstart health center, new-start Columbus, wellness in ColumbusI seem to find myself spending an abundant amount of time researching the latest and greatest FAD diet out that everyone seems to be so crazy over. I constantly hear about the amazing results of this new diet plan that will shed the weight in no time. Lose 10 dress sizes in three weeks. As I stated in the previous blog, if it sounds too good to be true, it is.

To sum up the vast majority of miraculous diet systems out there, I would say you could put them in a few categories:
  1.        Calorie counters: These diets are based around the premise of counting every calorie you eat and try to stay at a certain low level to ensure you lose weight. It seems so obvious, a pound of fat is about 3500 calories, so if you eat 3500 less calories than you burn, you will lose 1 pound, right?
  2.        Appetite suppressors: These diets are all about decreasing your urge to eat. They use miracle supplements that just keep you from putting food in your mouth. This will decrease your calorie intake and ensure you lose weight. This is the same regard as trying to burn 3500 calories than you eat to lose weight.
  3.       Metabolism boosters: I am sure you have seen a plethora of supplements that claim to boost your metabolism. The idea is, if you boost your metabolism, your body will burn more calories at rest and you will lose weight. This diet seems so easy. I can eat whatever I want, and take this metabolism boosting supplement and let it do the work for me.
  4. .      Restrictive plans: These are designed to create a diet that restricts a particular food group. The low fat diets, zero carb diets, etc. The theory is that some food groups are responsible for your gaining of weight, and if you stop eating them, you will lose weight. I know you have heard of the anti-carb Atkins Diet. Everyone in the US has been brainwashed about how bad FAT is to eat. So, cut the bad out and you will lose weight, easy peezee.

Do you want to know the biggest problem with all of these diet systems????
They work.

Yes, the problem is they work. You do lose weight. The catch is, its temporary.

Sure, you shock your body by doing some radical change to your diet and you will lose some weight. There is a certain expense to this though. The Yo-Yo effect of dieting and weight.

Fun analogy time!!!

Think about losing weight as if you are trying to improve the gas mileage on your car.

A calorie counting or appetite suppressant diet will only decrease the amount of gas you put in the car. Sure, when your car runs out of gas and you are coasting along without the engine running, you will have a dramatic increase in your gas mileage. BUT> that car comes to a screeching halt and your car is sitting there without any fuel to run itself.  This is what happens when you restrict your calories to an extreme 1200 calorie a day or less diet. Yes, for a brief time, you will lose weight, but every functioning part of your body is being depleted of the fuel it needs to work properly. After time, you will shut down, and just like the car, you will start to fill that tank back up because your car, and your body demand fuel to function.  Now to get your body out of this extreme depleted state, your body is going to overfill its tank and you will add the weight back on, and typically plus some because the body is worried about a crash like that happening again.

Appetite suppressors are very similar to trying to water down the gas you put in your tank to get more out of it. Sure, you are going to use less gas, but your car is not going to run as well on this watered down replacement. End of the day, your car will get less miles per gallon per each gallon you put in because the fuel you are putting in it is just not what the car needs to run at its potential. Appetite suppressant supplementation basically make your body run at a less than optimal level because it doesn’t want to use up all of its stored fuel. And what happens when you run a car on watered down gas for long periods of time? Things start to fail and it eventually shuts down. You do not want this to happen to your body, because to get it started again, it is a lot like the caloric restriction diets, it will add weight back on to protect itself.

Metabolism booster supplements simulate the process of putting some super high octane booster additive into each of your fill ups at the pump to supercharge the energy that your car can burn. This is very effective; your car will run better, faster, and much more efficiently. The problem is this. Are you planning on putting this same additive in your car FOREVER??? Losing weight with a supplement that boosts your metabolism is great, but as soon as you stop taking this premium product, guess what happens? All of the weight you have lost, comes screaming back, plus some.

Restrictive plans are just ridiculous. The human body requires 3 forms of caloric intake to survive; protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Each of these macronutrients play their own vital role in the health and wellness of the body. If you cut one of these out, it would be like telling your car, sorry, your don’t need oil anymore. Sure the car will run a little while, but eventually, it will go bad, very bad.

So, back to answering the question. What is the best diet plan?

These questions that I am setting out to answer are some of the most complex things to answer in my world, but I will do my best.

How do you get better fuel mileage out of your car?

Every car will get better fuel economy out of premium gasoline. Sure we all of the expense of 87
Weight loss Columbus Indiana, weight loss Columbus, lose weight in Columbus, how to lose weight, nutritional advice in Columbus, Columbus Indiana nutrition, Columbus Indiana weight clinic, weight loss clinic in Columbus, wellness coach in Columbus, wellness, health clinic in Columbus, new-start, newstart, newstart health center, new-start Columbus, wellness in Columbusoctane gas at the pump, and when we make that discounted purchase, we know that we are hurting our fuel mileage. Unfortunately, the body is not much different. If you try to purchase low grade food due to a budget, you are going to struggle with weight loss because your body just will not run as optimally as it could. More importantly, you have to plan on putting the more expensive, premium gas in your car for its entire life. You can’t just put the good stuff in for a while, feel the amazing effects, and then expect those results to remain after you go back to the 87 octane junk.

So, to wrap up the longest analogy of all time.

If you want to lose weight, stop looking for a diet plan. Stop looking for something to help you lose weight in the next 3 weeks.  You have to start looking at what you need to do to get your body running as smoothly and efficiently as it can. You have to fuel it with the best of fuel, and you have to understand that every time you go to a fast food joint, you are just putting watered down poor octane gas in your body and it will have a very negative effect on your goals.
I will repeat this and hopefully make it clearer.

There is no special diet plan that is going to be released to make you miraculously lose weight. The body needs fuel, good fuel, to make it function at its best. You need to plan on providing this premium food for the rest of your life if you want to keep any weight that you lose off for good. Yo-Yo dieting is detrimental to your overall metabolic function and it is a major struggle with so many of us. Overcoming the idealism that there is something wrong with your genetics and ability is an important step to becoming your biggest benefactor for your health.


I wish I had some happy ending to put here with a miracle diet plan, but I don’t. If I did, I would be the wealthiest man in the world, but after all of the hours of research I have done, I can assure you, the only person that will help you lose weight is you. You have to take charge of your health and plan on making this a lifetime life goal.

Why Can’t I Seem to Lose Weight, and Keep IT OFF?!?!?!

Why Can’t I Seem to Lose Weight, and Keep IT OFF?!?!?!

Weight loss Columbus Indiana, weight loss Columbus, lose weight in Columbus, how to lose weight, nutritional advice in Columbus, Columbus Indiana nutrition, Columbus Indiana weight clinic, weight loss clinic in Columbus, wellness coach in Columbus, wellness, health clinic in Columbus, new-start, newstart, newstart health center, new-start Columbus, wellness in ColumbusThis is a pretty serious question, and as most of the American population can relate to the epidemic of obesity, I feel it is a question that is not only misunderstood, but misguided. Weight loss has become a very profitable industry, reaching $60.5 billion in sales in 2014. With 69% of America’s 20+ year old population being overweight (according to 2011-2012 CDC) and climbing, I would say the industry that has set out to make $BILLIONS$ has some explaining to do.

 So, what do I mean by a question that is misunderstood and misguided?

We have an entire weight loss industry that has put themselves in place to answer this easy enough question, and it seems, they are simply failing to either figure out what people are asking, or failing to provide a relative solution to the problem at hand. People are getting more overweight while using these products. Or even worse, people lose a ton of weight on a special product, and as soon as they stop taking it, BOOM, an additional 15 pounds gets added.

No sustainable weight loss miracle has been created, and yet, the industry keeps their Dr. Oz recommended, green tea, miracle berry, super protein powder, crap on the shelf of every supermarket, gas station, bus stop, and car wash to ensure to the masses that they, in fact, have the secret weapon against the invading fat cells.

At the end of the day, everything that is in our face about weight management is a big misconception to ensure ongoing profits for the industry. I spend a lot of time researching the metabolic functions of the body. I have a clear understanding of the plethora of hormones that are involved in weight loss, and it almost astonishes me that these companies continue to market complete fallacies. To be honest, weight loss is a complex subject, with many different interpretations. Some try to blame it solely on genetics, and others try to blame it on bad luck. With the research I have found, these two excuses just do not work for me.

So, the big question remains… Why can’t I seem to lose weight and keep it off?

Well, I can assure you that lack of effort is not the issue. It seems that everyone that is a client to the weight loss industry has tried absolutely everything. I have seen patients taking a miracle pill that is supposed to shed the fat, and no effort is necessary on their part. The problem persists in the effort given. It seems that we will spend a fortune, put faith in every single cockamamie diet pill, and try so hard to believe that they will work just like it shows on TV or the advertisement. We are putting in so much effort to keep us from actually having to put in effort? Yes, I understand that sounds ridiculous.

Newsflash… If a product or weight loss solution tells you that you do not need to make any lifestyle changes, and their product is the end all beat all, no effort needed to lose weight, or if they tell you that you do not need to change your diet and the product will just curb your appetite. DO NOT BUY THIS GIMMICK. Yes, that product does sound too good to be true, because it is.

EEERRRT. Get back on track here…

I am always asked this question, and I always have the same answer. If you want to know how to lose weight, first you have to understand what causes weight gain.

Weight loss Columbus Indiana, weight loss Columbus, lose weight in Columbus, how to lose weight, nutritional advice in Columbus, Columbus Indiana nutrition, Columbus Indiana weight clinic, weight loss clinic in Columbus, wellness coach in Columbus, wellness, health clinic in Columbus, new-start, newstart, newstart health center, new-start Columbus, wellness in Columbus
  • 1.       Diet: The quality of the food you eat is the most important factor in regards to weight loss. 80% of the responsibility for weight gain and weight loss has to do with what you put in your mouth. If you are thinking you are eating the right foods because it says it is ZERO CALORIES or FAT FREE, you are probably eating the exact foods that cause weight gain. Processed foods that are loaded with sugars, artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and any amount of crazy scientific ingredients are the foods that are causing your weight gain issues.


  • 2.       Stress: The hormone cascade involved with elevated emotional stress will only wreak havoc you your metabolic function.  Please understand, stress plays a vital role in how our nervous systems react. If you are in a stressful situation, it will stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, and your flight or fight response kicks in. During this time, the parasympathetic nervous system is shut down, digestion is shut down, and every other metabolic function is shut down to keep your energy focused on running or fighting a stimulus. Which takes me to my next bullet point.

  • 3.       Digestion: I understand that most want to blame their weight struggles on a faulty thyroid gland, but I can ensure you, your digestive function is vastly more important, and a sluggish digestive system is possible the root cause of your thyroid woes. If your body is unable to digest food properly, (given that you are actually eating food that is, well, food) you will not be able to break down these foods and assimilate the vital nutrients that the body needs to function. If your body is void of the vital nutrients, it is in stress (see previous bullet). Thyroid, adrenal, cardiovascular, and every other function of the body needs a constant influx of vital nutrients, if your diet, and your digestion system are not providing these building blocks, your weight will suffer.


  • 4.       Exercise: Understand that the time spent at the gym, or the calories burned while you are on a treadmill, plays a minimal part on your weight. Exercise is beneficial in the form of a system for increasing muscle mass in the body. The body’s resting metabolic rate (RMR), or the amount of calories you can burn at rest, is directly related to the amount of muscle mass you have. If you want to increase your RMR, you need to increase your muscle mass. This is what exercise if for. If you are not active, your muscle mass will diminish and your RMR will crash.

As I stated, if you truly want to know why you can’t seem to lose weight, first you have to understand what is causing you to gain weight in the first place. This is where I stand behind the comment that if a product tells you that all you have to do is take their miracle pill and change nothing, IT WILL FAIL. Sure you might lose some weight initially, make yourself a true believer, and then it all comes crashing back on. This is because you have failed to remove the one thing that is causing the problem at hand.

To be clear, if you eat processed foods, even just one a day, you gain weight. If you do not exercise at all, and your muscle mass is going down the tubes, you gain weight. If you are going through a stressful time, and you know that you are having a difficult time dealing with it, you will gain weight. If you digestive system is not working properly, you have heartburn, you have intermittent diarrhea or constipation, you gain weight.

I do understand that you know someone who went through a tough time and they couldn’t eat and they seemed to wilt away to nothing. Or, sometimes a digestive system is all mixed up, and people seem to be unable to gain weight. And I also have seen those pesky people that seem to be able to eat ANYTHING THEY WANT, and never gain a pound. Rest assured, this is a major point that we address at New-Start Health Center.

I will not go on and on about the unhealthy relationship between weight and health as we all have seemed to become accustomed to. But to be clear, if you know someone who is not overweight, but they seem to eat sugary product after sugary product, iff you know someone that is too stressed out to eat and they are wilting away, they are not healthy. Sure, they may appear to be at a healthy weight, but their metabolic function is in distress. Each person’s body fat storage function is different. But I have to encourage you not to envy someone who can eat whatever crap they want and not gain weight. Their health is struggling and due to the vanity of America, we still allow them to assume a healthy status. This is dangerous.

So, the first part of answering the primary question is this: You need to understand what causes weight gain if you ever want to stop it.

Fun Analogy Time!!!

Think of weight gain or being overweight as a pink room. You are not interested in the room being pink anymore. In fact, you want to change it to a white room (lose weight). To start this process, first you have to realize some very important factors. How the room became pink? What you have to do to get it to turn white, and finally, what you need to do to keep it from turning pink again? Now, it is easy to understand how that room became pink, right? Someone took the pink paint, put in on a roller, and painted to their hearts content. And you obviously know to turn the room white. You take white paint, put it on a roller, and paint to your hearts content. The biggest disconnect between being overweight and weight loss, and getting a pink room to turn white is the simple step of, what do you need to do to keep it from turning pink again?

The current model we have in place for weight loss is missing this important step. If you have not learned what has made your room turn pink, or made you gain weight, if you do not understand how to keep it from coming back after you lose weight, then you are in a winless battle. Every single diet plan that I have researched, and every single miracle pill that tells you that you do not have to change anything is like painting your wall with white paint and then your friend coming in right behind you and accidently dripping bright red paint into your bucket without you even noticing. You just keep trying and trying to get a pink wall to turn white, but the material you are using, will only leave it the same color. Depending on how many coats you try to apply, you could even end up with a darker shade of pink. (The analogy here is that you will actually end a diet weighing more than what you actually started)

OK, that was fun. Now, let’s clean up this answer, shall we?

So many people are struggling with weight gain, obesity, and overall poor health in America. So many people are searching high and low to figure how why them, why are they overweight, how did they get this unlucky? To be honest, it is on you. It is not all your genetics fault, your doctor’s fault, or even your personal trainer’s fault.

You have to understand that your lifestyle is the predominant cause of weight gain. The food you eat,
the stress you have around you, the amount of exercise you perform, is all on you.

You need help from your family, friends, loved ones, coworkers, etc. You need the people around you to understand your goals, and understand what it is going to take for you to get your weight on track. YOU HAVE TO STAY FOCUSED.

So many people go into The New-Start Solution with intentions of losing 50 pounds in 5 days and then they get to go back to eating pizza and Doritos. This is just not a reality. The New-Start Solution is a Lifestyle Change. A rebirth into a healthy style of living. Call it what you want but it is not a diet or miracle system. It is simply the most basic form of eating that makes your body more efficient.

With all of my research, it all comes back to this one simple rule:


If you want to lose weight, and I mean truly lose weight… Look at yourself in the mirror. When you start to think about what you want to change, do not even think about the vanity standpoint of getting into a smaller size of pants. Do not waste your time thinking about what you ideal weight is. Instead, think about what you want to change to get there.

Should I Vaccinate My Children? Question 1

First big question of the blog:

Should I vaccinate my children?


should i vaccinate, vaccinations are bad, are vaccinations bad, is it good to vaccinate, new-start, newstart, dr mozingo, trent mozingo, evidence based medicine, who should get vaccinations, which vaccinations are bad, autism, autism and vaccinations, do vaccinations cause autism.I am going to start this post by making it clear that I do not have any children, so, I understand that it is easy to tell me that I cannot possibly understand what it feels like to make that decision.  I am in no way trying to persuade you either way, I am simply an unbiased writer helping everyone to be informed.

Let’s talk about that though. I commonly hear the remark; you just don’t understand what it feels like to make that decision for your child, someone you have bared, etc. All this is telling me is that most of us in the US have decided the choice of vaccination or no vaccination is up to an emotional driven decision instead of a factual one, based on research.

“But the doctor told me this. The pediatrician told me that,” etc. There isn’t anyone that wants to tell you not to listen to your doctor, not me, not anyone, but you do not have to take their advice as the golden rule, end all beat all, no possible reason to look elsewhere, or get a second opinion. You have to be as much a part of your health as anyone. So, I encourage second opinions, doing your homework, and getting answers that you truly believe in.

At the end of the day, everyone wants to do what is absolutely best for their children. That I can understand, even if I am not a parent. So, to answer the question, as a non-parent, holistic health physician, and avid researcher, here goes.

In my opinion (see what I did there) I feel like the vaccine schedule is too intense. Too many vaccines at one time. Too many administered at too young of an age. But that is just my opinion, I will accept any criticism for that.

Let’s start talking facts. 

Do vaccines work? 

You are going to find a plethora of studies that show how vaccines have eradicated some very serious diseases, and at the same time, if you look deeper, you will find that simply natural selection has eradicated these diseases. 

You will hear how autism is being expressed in children that get vaccines due to mercury and preservatives in the vaccine. Then you will hear about studies being shown that this is impossible.
It is nearly impossible to find the empirical evidence that you need to make the right decision, right?

As an avid researcher, I feel it is important to analyze the integrity of the research itself. Who funded it? Who stands to benefit from the outcomes of the study? Is there any way the data is skewed to ensure such an outcome that is beneficial for those who have funded it and stand to make a profit from it? This is where I find it hard to trust any evidence that is funded by the pharmaceutical industry. They stand to make $$BILLIONS$$ of dollars if the vaccine schedule seems effective. They are directly building a case to sell their products.

Then I look at the research that comes up with the latter of the terms. They show how vaccines are not working as it seems. They show how the decline in the diseases that are ever so boastfully acclaimed by the vaccine producing studies is simply a form of natural selection. So, I have to ask myself, what do these researchers have to gain for this work and information? I struggle to find a monetary gain. I struggle to see a power gain. I also struggle to see any reason for them to write this to falsely hurt the health of the people around them. Let’s face it. A non-biased company is not going to write about how vaccines are unnecessary if they actually are. They have no reason to try and discredit something that will ultimately keep you from contracting a major illness? Right?

So, I continue to look at the big picture. I dig deeper.

I am sure you have seen the epic amount of news articles about whistle blowers from the CDC discussing how they have corruptively hidden evidence of mercury toxicity from vaccines linking to autism. The struggle is finding this research. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT. So, in order to keep writing in evidence based way, I can only write about what I have found.

Have you heard of The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program?

Well it seems in 1988, the vaccine industry was struggling to make enough profit to compensate for the claims of harm done, so they created an excise tax on vaccines that gets paid to the CDC indirectly for these claims.

Since then, that value for the CDC has risen to over $3.4 BILLION. That seems like a conflict of interest to me, but hey, who knows?

So, do vaccines work?

Again, it is difficult to give an empirical answer to that. Studies show they do, studies show they don’t. But what I do know is this. Since the outbreak of measles from Disneyland, it does seem to be alarming that a percentage of those that contracted measles were of the vaccinated population… Yes, some of the spreading of measles has gone to the vaccinated population. So, does the vaccine work, maybe, does it not work, yes it seems so... You are probably not going to hear the exact numbers or percentages of those contracting measles which are vaccinated or not, because simply, the US, CDC, pharmaceutical world doesn’t want you to hear that vaccinated kids can get measles. Hmm.

Let’s move on.  Have you ever heard of Atypical Measles?

To quote Medicinenet.com

“Atypical measles syndrome (AMS): An altered expression of measles, AMS begins suddenly with high fever, headache, cough, and abdominal pain. The rash may appear 1 to 2 days later, often beginning on the limbs. Swelling (edema) of the hands and feet may occur. Pneumonia is common and may persist for 3 months or more.
AMS occurs in persons who were incompletely immunized against measles. This may happen if a person were given the old killed-virus measles vaccine (which does not provide complete immunity and is no longer available); or the person were given attenuated (weakened) live measles vaccine that was, by accident, inactivated during improper storage. Immunization with inactivated measles virus does not prevent measles virus infection. It can, however, sensitize a person so that the expression of the disease is altered, resulting in AMS.
Being atypical, AMS can be confused with other entities including Rocky Mountain spotted fever, meningococcal infection, various types of pneumonia, appendicitis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, etc.”
More alarming, is when you find out that encephalitis is a common symptom of measles and atypical measles, and now there is a dominant link to children with autism and also having encephalitis. Again, no empirical evidence to confirm this finding has anything to do with vaccines.
To clear this up, it seems that the MMR is not going to guarantee you will not contract measles if exposed. If you get the MMR there is a chance you will contract Atypical Measles from the vaccine itself, which can lead to encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) and that is linked to autism in children. Again, these are just facts from the reading above. I am in no way trying to just attack the MMR vaccine, or measles in this writing, but the current outbreak does bring it to top of mind. The flu vaccine is another dandy, which is also on the schedule for vaccines according to the CDC for children under 1 year old.
Back to the main question at hand. Should I vaccinate my children?
This is an answer that only you can decide. I am unbiased. I can find research that shows how magnificent they are (with a blind eye on whom funded it) and I can find research that shows how devastating they can be.
But what would I do? (This is my opinion, take it or leave it)

As I said, I do not have any children of my own at this time. But, my children will be vaccinated on a

very different schedule, if any. I will never allow a combined MMR vaccine to be administered, it is just too much. The more research I do, and the more it seems that vaccines are a danged if you don’t, more danged if you do scenario, I would say that I will do the latter. I am not a fan of putting a chemical, dead virus, inoculated pathogen, whatever, into the bloodstream of my future children unless I know that there is a 100% chance of no failure or complications. Considering the CDC has $3.4Billion in a compensation program, I am worried. Instead, I will promote a healthy immune system in my children. Help them build strong immune systems, ready to fight incoming pathogens. I plan to do this by providing healthy foods instead of processed junk. I will be sure they take a probiotic and eat fermented foods like sauerkraut. It is all too often that I hear parents discussing how difficult it is to get their children to eat healthy. This is an epidemic of itself. We will discuss that later in a future blog.
